Sam Stout entered his TUF Nations Finale bout versus K.J. Noons having never been knocked out during his 11-year, 30-fight MMA career.

Unfortunately for the 29-year-old from London, Ontario, he was no match for Noons’ striking ability on this night, resulting in a first-round knockout, followed by an impromptu grappling session with referee Philippe Chartier.
